Implementation and Performance of Energy-efficient Node Management in Wireless Sensor Networks

Many researches have been actively performed to increase energy efficiency in wireless sensor networks. In these researches communication has been the most important target for reducing energy consumption. In fact, in most cases, the frequencies of communication and sensing in a sensor node affect its energy consumption. Therefore, sensing period and transmission period need to be controlled to increase energy efficiency. This paper proposes on energy efficient and restricted query flooding mechanism using service discovery. Further, we implement node management system based on the mechanism and evaluate its performance.
